On the notion of mathematical model in educational research: Insights from a new proposal
Résumé
This paper introduces a definition of mathematical model which is intended to be applied in educational research. A synthesis of the background literature leads us to a notion of mathematical modelling that summarises contributions from a wide range of authors. This notion can be made operational in research by using the concept of mathematical model introduced in this study. This resulting proposal for defining model allows the establishing of suitable dimensions of analysis for research. The main features of this new conceptualization and its application to investigate mathematical models are also discussed.
